theBalm® cosmetics cabanaBOY shadow/blush Customer Reviews

There are a few occasions in life when we blush naturally, like when we run into an old crush or make eye contact with a handsome stranger. Since those events happen rarely, we like to fake it with this flirtatious blush. The ultra-fine powder blends seamlessly into your skin, while the dusty rose hue gives it a natural flush. Plus, it comes in an adorable compact with a built-in mirror and can double as lovely eye shadow.

Good pigmentation in color, but doesn't blend naturally

I usually use Benefit brand blush, but my favorite makeup blogger, MaskCara, raves about Cabana Boy in a lot of her tutorials. I, however, am not a big fan because the color doesn't look natural on my olive skin tone and because it doesn't blend out well. Instead, I look like I have 2 streaks of red across my cheekbones that eventually just wipes off as the day wears on. Plus, I like a little shimmer in my blush to double as a highlighter - cabana boy is just an opaque color with no shimmer.
So, may good for other people, but just wasn't right for me.

Love, love, love this blush! The first day I used it, a co-worker asked me if I had gone away for the weekend! (I am very fair and this blush gave me sun-kissed cheeks!) Yep, I love theBalm cabanaBoy blush!

Dense beautiful color

I was worried when I opened this up, but it promised a dusty rose color and BOY did it deliver :)) very rich color suitable for blending and gave me a natural flush. It replaced my estee lauder I thought I'd never live without. great products from The Balm!

Love It!

First off, I'm a sucker for packing and this caught my eye. I love makeup that has that vintage look. However, the product is amazing. I love that it's not too pigmented. If I want to build more I can, without the feeling of me being too heavy handed. The color is great with any skin tone ( I'm dark) and it gives that natural flush of color. You have to try it, I cant wait to buy more products from this brand.

Great service from the "cabanaBOY"

Like I've said before, the Balm cosmetics Company has the best names for their products!!! I put my makeup on with a smile, not just because of the name but because I think the blush has just the right amount of color to make me look natural. I love it.
